Mistrust and lack of dialogue have been critical components of the conflict in the AAA. FAO played a key role in initiating dialogue and building social cohesion at the grassroots level, contributing to wider peace initiatives. In this picture, women from Dinka Ngok (affiliated with South Sudan) and the Missiriya (affiliated with Sudan) tribal communities meet during a peacebuilding event to discuss grievances and how to overcome them peacefully.

Did up a display sign for a local shop out here in Denver. Spray paint, paint markers, and a bunch of painter's tape. It's a great shop with some great guys running the show. Stop in for your rap spritz needs when you're in Denver.
Built to last, the old school is now a well-cared for community center in little Sedan, Montana

Sedan
This agricultural community in the northeast corner of Gallatin County was settled in 1885-86. When the post office was established (1891-86), it was named Sedan for a county seat in Kansas. A cheese factory built in 1910 operated intermittently until 1940. Above the cheese factory was the lodge hall that served as the community center. (Torn down in 1956). A general store operated from 1915-1925. Another store-gas station from 1935. A community church was built in 1898. The Woosley Sawmill furnished lumber for most buildings. Three schools served Sedan: first one in 1889, the second in 1906 became a teacherage in 1930, the third school 1921-22 incorporated East Flathead and Sunnyside (Sagebrush) school districts and operated until 1967. This school is now the Community Center. A private phone service existed from 1900 to 1940. Electricity came in 1949. The Sedan Cemetery is on a nearby hill.
A beautiful sunny afternoon at Clitterhouse Farm, where locals gather on weekends. This time, a Scottish band played dance music, and everyone participated, holding hands and moving together, reflecting a shared purpose and collective action. The people in the photo are engaged and focused on the activity. The mix of children and adults taking part together shows a shared intention to create bonds and foster a sense of community across generations

Under the Santos administration, the Colombian government has vastly expanded protected areas, creating new national parks and indigenous and Afro-Colombian reserves in broad swathes of the Amazon and other parts of the country. In July, the government expanded two indigenous reserves in Caquetá connecting protected areas to establish one of the largest conservation corridors in the Amazon with 10 million hectares of protected land. Under the Paris Climate Agreement Colombia pledged to achieve zero net deforestation in the Amazon by 2020. However, national parks and indigenous and Afro Colombian lands continue to be threatened by illegal occupation, coca cultivation and illegal gold mining. In addition, many environmentally sensitive areas lack protected status, and deforestation has increased due mainly to cattle ranching and agricultural expansion.
The Inter-American Dialogue, in partnership with the Andes Amazon Fund, is pleased to host a panel discussion on conservation and indigenous and Afro-Colombian land rights featuring Minister of Environment and Sustainable Development Luis Gilberto Murillo.

This wonderful little community garden is in Levy Park. I am not a gardener by any means, but walking around the beds seeing all the vegetables growing makes me want to get a plot and grow something. Maybe when I move into town.
